About Me

RANTINGS OF AN OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE, BORDERLINE MANIC-DEPRESSIVE, ANAL-RETENTIVE MEANIEIf I had a shrink I'd tell him/her I think I'm going crazy. If I were a shrink, I'd ask myself "Really, & how does that make you feel?", charge myself $100 dollars an hour for saying that, or I'd tell myself that I'm bipolar on the psychotic, side, obsessive-compulsive, with a touch of manic-depressiveness and that I need help very bad, give myself some much needed drugs. Then again, the cause might have been that staircase fall incident when I was a wee little toddler. Yes, I was tiny once. I was born a 6 pound baby. At least I can honestly say, there was one time I weighed only 6 pounds, and have pictures and records to prove it too! Some people think my eating habits are weird (e.g. I'd eat the fries first, then the burger, then drink after I've finished everything). I hate sweets. The only sweet thing I like are bittersweet chocolates. I like bland food. I hate my own cooking! I was one of those children who was made to eat with a plate that has partitions. I think weird scenarios in my head (e.g. spies, aliens, conspiracies). Plants wither and die when I touch them even with just the tip of a finger. I don't know why though. Maybe it emits some kind of radiation. I must be a mutant like Jubillee only I destroy plants. A week ago I woke up surprised to find living plants in my room. Chinese Bamboo thingies or whatever they're called. I thought they were fake but when I looked closer they have roots! I don't know how long they'll survive. My room is hazardous to plants I think. I like it dark. I specifically insisted on having thick curtains or drapes, plus room dividers to shut out light. I am a moon child, a creature of the night. I hate the sun! I hate the tropics. I think I was born in the wrong country! I'm addicted to mangoes and watermelon, Heineken and vanilla vodka. Someday I'll be an explorer, a pilot, a photo-journalist, & the most powerful woman in the universe.

I'd like to meet:

Niccolo Machiavelli. Hugh Jackman. Too bad he's already married. Keanu Reeves. I'll ask him if he's really gay. Michael Buble, his voice is sooooo dreamy! Duncan Sheik. I just want to see how tall he is. Didn't get a good look when we watched his concert last July. Bret Hart, my first love. I'll tell him how hurt I was when I found out he's married! How can he break a 12 year old's heart like that?!!!!! The cute single hunk at Chili's Greenbelt, the short Caucasian cutie three tables away from us, my ex who owes me so much I'm willing to not forgive and meet him again on my next life so I can beat the crap out of his bony ass. The people who grabbed my ass and elbowed my boobs at the crappiest San Miguel Oktoberfest party ever! If I find out who you people are, I'm going to hunt you down, make you pay for the bruises you gave me and my friends, and then beat the crap out of all of you just for the kicks!
